How Do You Promote a Self-Published Book?
10 Vital Reminders for a Successful Book Launch!
Having self-published more than ten books, I know how difficult it is to find the best way to market your book. This is especially true if you have a limited budget. If you’re like me, you may have done everything yourself and you don’t have as much money for ads just like other publishers.
But having limited resources doesn’t mean you can’t have unlimited ways to promote your book. After accomplishing the great task of writing, editing, revising and re-editing your book for the nth time, I’m certain that you have it in you to begin the challenging task of selling it!
In this article, let me provide you some of the ways you could look into when promoting your self-published book:
1. Have you checked your book cover?
Is you book cover attractive enough to catch the interest of readers? Remember that the cover is one of the very first things your potential readers would ever see.
What impression would your book cover make? Would it make your book look credible and professional?
Compare your cover to those from bestsellers in a similar genre. Would they somehow blend in? What fonts have you used? What overall impact does your book cover create?
If your cover is not good, it won’t even stand the chance of being noticed for readers to know more about your book.
